Sunshine Award and end of exams!

First of all, my exams are finished!!!! No more
school until February! This is sooooo exciting!!!! (ok, they actually finished on the 25th Nov, I just haven't mentioned it until now)

So now that I have that over with, I have been
nominated twice (by Libby-Jade and Alia) for the Sunshine Award now, it is essentially a tag for
spreading the love around blogs and acknowledging bloggers you think bring
sunshine to the blogging world, which I think is a lovely idea.

6. I still struggle with holding my hair out of the
way while brushing my teeth.

7. I have no clue what I want to do when I leave
school, and next year is my last (yay for indecision!)

8. I am feeling a bit weird starting so many sentences with I.
9. I am super excited for summer!!
10. Although I am sad because it is raining and cold at the moment.

11. And I have no idea what is going on with the font sizes, so please forgive me.

Alia's questions:

1. What's your favourite movie?Bright Star, it is sad, but so beautiful.

2. Do you have a
special talent?Nope, unless you count touching my nose with my tongue, which isn't particularly special.

3. What's your favourite colour?
Yellow, because it is such a happy colour.

4. How many languages do you
speak? One; English, but I did both French and German for 2 and a half years at school.

5. If a fantasy world was real, which one would you want to live in? So hard! I can't pick, so instead I'm going to choose a fantasy world where people don't have wars to solve problems, and we can be harmonious and work together and be happy (with a bit of harry potter, doctor who etc. thrown in).

6.
What's your favourite animal? Dolphins. They are beautiful, and remind me of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy at the same time.

I watch more television, because movies are harder to come by, so television.

11. Where were you born?

In the same town where I live now, which is quite small (not for NZ, but for the rest of the world)Libby-Jade's questions:1)What's your favourite nail varnish?
The one I'm wearing now, Jaded, Top Speed from Revlon, because it is the first I've worn in years!2)Favourite scented candle?

This year? A toss up between History and Chemistry.11) If you could have ANY pet at all what would it be? (you can make one up or just go for a good ol dog)
A big dog (we have a small one) with a gentle temperament.

I am going to be super lazy and only nominate a few people, because I can't be bothered finding 11 bloggers, and it will be more genuine this way too. Anybody else who is reading this and wants to do it is welcome to do it too. :)Jan @ Confessions of a Book Ninja
And that's it to be honest! Most of the people I would have nominated I already did for the Liebster Award.Questions:
1. What is your favourite part of Christmas?
2. Do you enjoy writing in notebooks?
3. Can you play a musical instrument?
4. How many books have you read this year?
5. What is your favourite season?

ps. did you know that there is a spell check button? I only just realised, so I'm not sure how well it works.

Congrats on your nomination and thanks for mine! :-) I will get around to the post soon - I just need to think of my answers to your questions! Oh, and if you do get that trip to Paris if I've got my dream bookshop up and running by then, you can drop by for a coffee and a browse! :-)
